Midweek post: Candy lips

I've got back into my bold lips and simple eye looks recently. The other day I thought I'd wear bright candy pink lips so thought I may aswell document it as a FOTD! I put ombre lips into practice, a look I'm really loving at the moment as it let's me be (a bit) creative but is also wearable for day to day! I love the depth it adds to lips when you use a darker liner and blend it to a lighter shade, though it's always important to remember, and god knows, AVOID that not so charming look that was so popular in the 90's- sorry Naomi!
It was also the second time I used Illamasqua's Sealing Gel. I'll pop a review up of this in a couple of weeks when it has been tried and tested properly!
Let me know if you use any of the products used and what you think of them.


FOTD:
Estee Lauder DoubleWear foundation in 'Shell' mixed with L'Oreal Lumi Magique primer
Chanel Poudre de Universelle in '20 Clair'
MAC 'Harmony' blush (contour)
MAC MSF in 'Soft and Gentle' (cheekbone highlight)
Benefit 'Sugarbomb' blush

Eyes:
Estee Lauder peach/gold eyeshadow from the 'Topaz Mosaic' palette
Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliner (waterline)
Yves Saint Laurent 'Shocking' mascara
MAC 'Showstopper' on brows

Lips:
Rimmel Lasting Finish Lip Liner in '004 Indian Pink'
MAC LE lipstick in 'Naughty Saute'

Thankyou for reading!
